Boiling Point of Pure Metals
The boiling point of a metal is the temperature at which the metal vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure. This means that at the boiling point, the metal will begin to vaporize or turn into a gas.
The following table provides a comprehensive list of boiling point values for pure metals under 1 atmospheric (atm) pressure. (1 atm = 101,325 Pa)
